[ad_1]

Lauren Muprhy had the opportunity to fight before Valentina shevchenko on his last visit to the octagon of UFC -they both met for the 125-pound world title- and he has no doubts: “Lives up to Michael Jordan” (via MMA Fighting).

Valentina Shevchenko at the height of Michael Jordan?

“She was amazing. It was crazy being there with someone of that level because I had never really competed with someone of that level before. I don’t remember the fourth round, really, so I guess that’s pretty good.

“It’s a bummer to lose, and this was the first time they finished me. I think it was a good ending, I was quite out of place when the referee took it off me. It is definitely not the result we wanted but, to be honest with you it was great to be there with a martial artist of her caliber.

«It is a very good experience. That’s what it must feel like playing Michael Jordan, or that’s how the boys felt when they competed with Khabib [Nurmagomedov], because it really was, ‘Shit, this girl is really on another level.’
